Mom stopped treatments and meds

October 18th my mom made the decision to stop transfusions because they are no longer helping her after a discussion with the doctor. We called hospice and made arrangements for mom to always have someone home with her. She has also stopped taking all her medications and said to me "what's the point". She was in bed for two days and suddenly last night she got up and we used her rolling walker to get her to the recliner. Oxygen is on 3 litres now. She refuses meds and says she has no pain. Every day I pray for her relief. Last transfusion was October 10th. She had 3 units total.
